Q

Vital capacity

A

Max amount of air that can be exhaled after a max inhalation. Inspiratory reserve+tidal volume+expiratory reserve volume.

27
Q

Total lung capacity

A

sum of vital capacity+residual volume. Max a lung could hold

28
Q

Pathway of air

A

Nasal cavity>pharynx > Larynx>trachea > main left+ right brochi > bronchioles > alveoli

29
Q

goblet cells

A

secrete mucus

30
Q

surfactant

A

substance that prevents lungs from collapsing by reducing surface tension

31
Q

Oxyhemoglobin

A

carries most O2 in blood

32
Q

Carboxyhemoglobin

A

binds to carbon monoxide, poisonous

33
Q

carbaminohemoglobin

A

hemoglobin that transports CO2, CO2 very soluble so most dissolves in blood as bicarbonate.

34
Q

Reduced Hemoglobin

A

H+ binding to hemoglobin, reduced O2 affinity and increased CO2 affinity

35
Q

Myoglobin

A

even higher affinity for oxygen than oxyhemoglobin, found in cardiac+ skeletal muscles

36
Q

2,3-diphosphoglycerate

A

accumulates in cells that undergo anaerobic respiration due to loss of O2, decreases O2 binding

37
Q

Bohr Effect

A

Decreased O2 affinity when CO2 is high. CO2 converted to bicarbonate and protons produce reduced hemoglobin

38
Q

Haldane Effect

A

Increased CO2 affinity when O2 is low

39
Q

Bicarbonate buffering system

A

CO2 + H2O <> H2CO3 <> HCO3- + H+

40
Q

Gas exchange in lungs

A

1) blood travels to lungs 2)most of CO2 is present in blood as bicarbonate, and they reenter the erythrocytes at lungs + Cl- leave through reverse chloride shift 3)Bicarbonate buffer system equation proceeds in reverse, producing CO2 and H2O. CO2 enters into alveoli, O2 enters blood forming oxyhemoglobin

41
Q

Central chemoreceptors

A

in medulla oblongata, in blood brain barrier. CO2 converted to bicarbonate and H+ here. As CO2 accumulates acidity increases and central chemoreceptors signal to medulla oblongata to increase breathing

42
Q

Peripheral chemoreceptors

A

surround aortic arch+ carotid arteries. Sense O2 CO2 and H+ to signal to medulla oblongata

43
Q

Respiratory acidosis

A

lowered blood pH due to inadequate breathing

44
Q

respiratory alkalosis

A

increased blood pH due to rapid breathing

45
Q

Sebaceous glands

A

secrete oil on skin as a form of innate immunity

46
Q

diapedesis

A

cells move from capillaries to tissues in order to fight pathogens

47
Q

Neutrophils

A

phagocytes in innate immunity that make up over half of leukocytes

48
Q

Lymphocytes

A

B cells, T cells, natural killer cells

49
Q

Perforin

A

creates holes in infected cells

50
Q

granzyme

A

stimulate apoptosis

51
Q

Macrophages

A

phagocytes in innate immunity, act as antigen presenting cells to initiate adaptive immunity

52
Q

Eosinophils

A

innate, have granules that can be released to kill pathogens especially parasites

53
Q

Basophils

A

Basically mast cells

54
Q

Dendritic cells

A

scan tissues using pinocytosis+phagocytosis. Act as antigen presenting cells

55
Q

Interferons

A

secreted by virally infected cells which bind to non infected cells to prepare them for attack

56
Q

complement protein actions

A

1) tags antigens for phagocytosis in a process called opsonization
2) Amplifies inflammatory response
3) Forms membrane attack complex which lyses pathogens

57
Q

Epitome

A

Important part of antigen that is recognized by immune cell

58
Q

MHC class 1

A

surface molecule present on all nucleated cells, and each genetically different individual will have different MHC I molecule

59
Q

MHC Class 2

A

a surface molecule present on antigen presenting cells, presents foreign antigens.

60
Q

B cells

A

control anti-body mediated immunity by managing production and release of antibodies

61
Q

B cell receptors

A

bind to antigen epitomes , each B cell has a unique BCR

62
Q

Clonal selection model

A

development of one type of BCR for every B cell, through clonal expansion they divide into either plasma cells, secreting cells, or memory B cells

63
Q

Classes of Antibodies

A

“Me And Eve Don’t Go”
IgM- pentameric form, first to be produced and activates complement system
IgA- found in bodily secretions, babies get passive immunity through mothers breastmilk
IgE- Triggers histamine and allergic reaction
IgD- not much known
IgG- crosses placenta to fetus in order to give it passive immunity. Helps complement system to causes opsonization.

64
Q

T cell receptors

A

bind to only once type of antigen per T-cell, also undergo clonal selection
